Who We Are
The New York City Homebrewers Guild is the oldest homebrewing club in the
New York City area. Founded in 1987, the guild's main purpose was to give homebrewers a rest haven
to talk and learn about the aspects of making high quality hand-crafted beers and wines.
In the past 20 years, many guild members have moved on from homebrewing into commercial brewing
at various brewpubs and breweries.
The NYCHG now meets monthly at Burp Castle. At the meetings, the members listen to guest speakers,
taste hand-crafted beers not locally available, and of course, there's always homebrew!
Previous guest speakers include numerous commercial brewers, importers, distributors and authors.
Dedicated to the fine art of brewing quality beer, the Guild's main focus is to educate its
members and the public about the age-old craft of homebrewing. It also is dedicated to the
success of microbrewers, bars, and retailers providing hand-crafted beers to the public.
